The jib crane has a light-duty operation, consisting of a column, a rotating arm with a rotating drive unit, and an electric hoist. The lower end of the column is securely fastened to a concrete foundation with anchor bolts. It is driven by a cycloidal pinwheel reducer to rotate the jib. The electric hoist operates in a straight line on the I-beam of the jib, lifting heavy loads. The crane's jib is an empty-type steel structure, which is lightweight, has a large span, and can lift heavy loads, making it economical and durable. The built-in walking mechanism features special engineering plastic wheels with roller bearings, offering minimal friction and smooth movement; its compact structure is particularly advantageous for enhancing the hook travel range. The jib crane is composed of a column, rotating arm, jib drive unit, and electric hoist. The lower base of the column is anchored to the concrete foundation with anchor bolts. The hoist is driven by a motor-powered reducer unit to rotate the jib. The electric hoist performs back-and-forth operations on the I-beam of the jib. The jib crane can help shorten production preparation and non-productive working time, reducing unnecessary waiting. Modern jib cranes come in various specifications and types, catering to requirements for lifting weight, rotation angle, arm length, and functionality. All models share a common advantage: lightweight, long jib, high lifting capacity, and simple installation, operation, and maintenance. They are completely independent, ideal for work station cranes, and suitable for outdoor loading and unloading platforms. The column has a small footprint. It can achieve a high lifting height even with a very small lifting clearance. The electric jib crane is a new generation of lightweight lifting equipment designed to adapt to modern production, paired with a highly reliable JPK-type chain electric hoist. It is particularly suitable for short-distance, frequent, and dense lifting operations, featuring energy-saving, convenient operation, minimal footprint, ease of operation, and maintenance. Mobile jib cranes offer flexibility, adaptability, and are ideal emergency lifting equipment on automated production lines, ensuring smooth production flow. The articulated jib crane series features a novel structure, ease of extension and retraction, convenient operation, and energy-saving properties. Operation involves lifting the load by pressing a button, utilizing the bending and rotation of the beam to maneuver around objects within the controlled work area, maximizing the workspace. Gentle pushing and pulling allows access to any position within the work area.
The jib crane operates with the intensity of a light-duty crane. Its hollow steel structure jib is lightweight with a large span and lifting capacity, offering economic durability. In the hoisting position, it rotates smoothly, and both the lifting jib and walking mechanism can be manually or electrically driven with precise positioning. The built-in walking mechanism features a guide wheel assembly with minimal friction for smooth movement. The rotation control allows for a 270-degree turn, compatible with chain hoists, linear equalizers, and VPL lifting equipment, available with galvanized or painted surface finishes. Depending on the running track, the pillar-type jib crane can be categorized into two types: internal-mounted and external-mounted track cranes. When paired with the PK-type electric chain hoist, it can swiftly and agilely lift materials at workstations. The pillar-type jib crane can be installed at any location, accommodating various environments, making it an ideal choice for factories where other conveying equipment cannot be structurally fixed.
